Abstract
To contribute to the possibilities to study the ability of oligosaccharide fragments of hyaluronic acid to induce angiogenesis, several hyaluronic-acid-related oligosaccharides and their 6-O-sulfated analogues were synthesised as their 4-methoxyphenyl glycosides having 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose at the reducing end. In all syntheses described, the D-glucopyranosyluronic acid residue was obtained by oxidation at C-6 of a corresponding D-glucopyranosyl residue after construction of the oligosaccharide backbone, using pyridinium dichromate and acetic anhydride.
